Vivian Olds

"Our business was started over 100 years ago in the same small shop we use today, by my great grandfather Henry Olds".

Henry passed on the business to his son Percy Olds and grandson, my father Vivian Olds.

"After taking over the business from my father I introduced my son to it, Mr Randall Olds, so you can see it has been quite a long family business.

We have a Butchers Shop at Chapel Road where you will be announced by an old fashion bell !

We offer genuine local produce as not only do we have the shop but our own licensed slaughter house as well.

We have been very fortunate in acquiring a Soil Association approved licence for our slaughter house as well as our EU Licence and now provide Organic Beef, Pork and Lamb.

Although our slaughter house is small we are one of the few who have managed to survive and meet the tough legislation introduced by consecutive governments who have seemed intent on shutting down independent facilities like ours.

We are able to offer a service to the local farming community which means that animal welfare is of the highest in as much as animals then do not have to travel huge distances before slaughter.

Much of our time these days is spent delivering with a mobile van to many of the surrounding villages in Penwith on a regular weekly basis.

We have had so many requests for our unique product from further afield that we are now offering a Box Service for Organic Produce delivered freshly to your door anywhere in the UK."
